BABY HARDIN TWINS
ARRIVING NOVEMBER 2014
I honestly can not describe to anyone how utterly shocked I was when the sonogram tech decided to share the love and inform me that there was a
"THIS ONE" and a "THAT ONE"....
At first all I thought about was NICU, premature births, underdeveloped lungs, incubators, poor eyesight, the list goes on and on... I have not for one minute been naive on this situation. But... as I was driving home, in the total silence, a wave of total emotion flooded over me. It was not fear, it was not worry. It was total gratitude for this GIFT we have been given. I have never in my life felt so many emotions at one time - Unworthy of something so special, yet so honored that the Lord trusted US with this journey. I just feel as if HE gave this gift to us - wrapped in a scarlet ribbon. Every time my prayer begins as "Lord please... make their hearts strong, make them healthy, etc.... " It always ends with... but THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. In all my life I think I have failed to thank the Lord as much as I have the last few days. I know its still early, not to get too excited, and that anything could happen.... But I just look at it this way.... regardless, God picked us. And we feel special and honored and accepting of the challenge! So, now, along with praying for healthy babies, I also pray that we can be half the parents God has so gratefully trusted us to be.....
